I like 'cold brew August' better than 'February' ๐Ÿคฃ "The date that is an equal distance from the summer solstice as February 13 is from the winter solstice is August 14."

Me: "Lord, please protect me from the temptation to do something stupid with my bitcoin." Price crashes, making me poor again. Prayer answered ๐Ÿคฃ

A few sats and @PayPerQ helped get my tractor running again ๐Ÿซก Also, if you already own Ryobi 18V batteries, the PCL031B inflator is a handy little tool to have.

Doesn't it seem kind of weak to suggest guilt by association when Epstein apparently couldn't even get his name right? If we're going to go after someone, let's target all of the public officials responsible for Epstein being a free man post-2008. View quoted note โ†’

I've read this before but never like this. Value-per-coin would be dependent on: a) user growth, or b) "the amount of fiat sloshing around in the system" God bless everyone trying to make Bitcoin easier to use ๐Ÿซก View quoted note โ†’

This will ruffle some feathers but I believe it's a disservice to keep pretending that the reason for nostr's dwindling usage is due to the absence of dopamine-feeding algos when - at least in my experience - it's the least reliable and consistent social media that most people will ever try. When I try to zap someone through primal web, my default zap amount gets arbitrarily changed to 42 with no explanation. So in the back of my mind I'm thinking, if it can change it to 42 without my knowledge, what's to stop it from changing to something like 42K and empty my entire wallet in my first zap of the day? Zap, Like and Repost icons that just sit there spinning all day after you click them. Home feeds whose chronological order is randomly dependent on relay connections, caching servers or who knows what? To my mind, the only people who will endure this for much more than a year are those with an ideological desire to see nostr succeed, and that has to be a much smaller number than want to see bitcoin succeed.

Ever convert a pre-coiner by giving them a gift card purchased using sats through something like bitrefill?
